Title: Airline strikes this summer
Post by: Martin_1962 on 06 May 2009, 12:49:34
Looks like pilots will be striking and the airlines are supportive.

The Stazi government have decided they should have ID cards and the pilots say no, they are going to strike unless the idea is scrapped.

Good luck to the pilots :y

People on Manchester can volunteer to pay £60 to have a card.

Why are the Stazi government ploughing on with this when they will be out of office soon?


Why are they wasting billions on this when the country is so much in debt?

Whats wrong with a credit card sized driving licence which can then double up as your ID? No need to have all you info on there elecronically.

Exactly, everyone who does not drive should pay up for one of those.

I'll be sure to keep this story away from the mrs. We fly to Spain next month and i certainly dont want to listen to 4 weeks of her worrying whether there will be a pilot to take us!!!

Quite right Martin, this the natural result of paranoid government  :D keep looking behind the headlines and be prepared to be afraid, very afraid :o :o

The nation has walked doe-eyed into state control of the most intrusive kind >:( >:(

Perhaps because you can be an ilegal immigrant and still get a driving licence :-X
